    Question Wire lugs

    Do you think we need more watches with wire lugs? What's your opinion about wire lugs?
    So, wire lugs : yes or no?

    I'm neutral...as I only have radiomirs that use wire lugs,changing the strap is such a pain but it accomodates smaller wrist in comparison to fixed lugs (at least in Panerai sense)

    Bracelet kind of guy here; so, not for me, thanks.
    To my eyes, wire lugs spoil the 'flow' of the case.
    Some people have opinions - The rest of us have taste.

    I like them on certain style watches. But I have yet to see a new watch with wire lugs that catches my fancy

    Also have to say that it all depends on the watch it self. On a Radiomir, for instance, I can really appreciate it.



    Btw,.. where are all the nice photo's of examples??
